Sleep status and low-density lipoprotein particle size in a general Japanese female population: the MIMA study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study investigated the relationship between sleep adequacy and small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) in a Japanese population. SUBJECTS AND
methodsClinical data, including atherosclerotic risk factors, in addition to the mean LDL particle size (LDL-PS) measured by gel electrophoresis, were evaluated in 136 community-dwelling female subjects (40-80 years old). The sleep status was self-reported and the subjects were divided into those who had inadequate sleep (≤ 6 or ≥ 9 h of sleep) and had adequate sleep (7-8 h).
resultsThe mean LDL-PS was significantly smaller in subjects with inadequate sleep [n = 68, 26.4 ± 0.4 (SD) nm] than in those with adequate sleep (n = 68, 26.6 ± 0.4 nm, p < 0.05). This difference remained significant and independent after adjusting for confounders (β = 0.15-0.19, p < 0.05).
conclusionSleep adequacy was associated with the presence of sdLDL, while the influence of the sleep status on LDL-PS was minor in this population. Further research on the associations among sleep, sdLDL and cardiovascular disease prevention is warranted.
